The Dodgers expect Betts to return tomorrow after a personal matter delayed his departure by one day.

Mookie Betts' trip back to Boston has been postponed by at least a day due to personal matters he is handling in Nashville, Tennessee. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts stated on Thursday, "I am aware he has personal issues to attend to, which may cause him to be absent. His condition is fine, but the timing of his return is uncertain."

Before the start of the three-game series against the Red Sox at Fenway Park today, Roberts updated that this eight-time All-Star is expected to return for tomorrow's game, but his participation will depend on his arrival time: "He should arrive before tomorrow's game and is doing everything possible to get back as soon as he can. Whether he starts is still uncertain, but he will definitely be at the ballpark that day."

During today's game, the Dodgers did not fill the roster spot due to Betts' absence, resulting in a short bench. Betts has struggled this season, posting a batting average of just .238 over 94 games.
